Ableton Push 2 is a hardware instrument that seamlessly integrates with Live 11 to give you a hands-on and expressive music-making experience. Push 2 gives you the best of both worlds for making music: inspiring hardware for hands-on control at the beginning, and full-featured music creation software for fine-tuning the details at the end. It’s a powerful, expressive instrument that gives you hands-on control of an unlimited palette of sounds, without needing to look at a computer. Play or step sequence all of your musical ideas. Whether playing drums or pitched instruments, Push 2 adapts to your musical needs, with great feeling pads and controls that keep you in the flow. Push 2 gives you a range of ways to play and manipulate your samples. Slice samples across the pads, play single hits, or warp long samples so that they always stay in time with your song. Access all of Live 11’s devices, your third-party plug-ins, and samples. Use Push 2 to browse, preview, and load your sounds. Get fast hands-on access to Live 11’s built-in devices, VST or Audio Units plug-ins, and your sample library. Push 2 is equally at home in the studio or on stage. Keep your performances in-the-moment by switching between improvising with loops and playing drums, notes, and chords—all from the same expressive grid of pads. When you’re ready to get into detailed arranging, editing, and exporting your finished song, switch from Push 2 to your computer to find your music already laid out in Ableton Live 11—the software that was powering your work the whole time. Ableton Live 11 Suite is the complete integrated studio. Live 11 organizes multiple passes of an audio or MIDI performance into individual takes. Pick the best moments of each performance and combine them to create your perfect take. Or approach sound design in a new way by splicing together random samples from your library.
